Well Nadia's sleepless nights are starting to catch up with me. Jacob is great with helping, but I really try to do it on my own since he is working. I start back to work on Monday though and I am a little nervous about how sleep deprived I will be. I am guessing that this is why people wait 6 weeks before going back to work. I think that my hormones are finally starting to level out. I tell you, women have SO much to go through when having a baby. I still find myself missing Jacob, but from what I hear its pretty normal to miss the time that you had just the two of you. We have started a whole new chapter in life and that is exciting! Nadia came almost 2 years to the date that Jacob and I met, hard to believe how much life has changed for the both of us in that time. We are the happiest we have ever been though and so thankful for what we have together. I don't think either one of us thought that we could be as happy as we are. I am going to call and schedule my 6 week check up at the Dr and talk to her about what form of birth control we should use. Since I am breast feeding there are only a few options. I think I will ask about the mini pill. We are a little nervous considering it took me less than a month to get pregnant this last time! On another note, I now weigh less than I did when getting pregnant. I am pretty excited about that! Now if my hips will go back to normal I would be set.
This morning we went down to my parents house so that Howie could get groomed. They just adore seeing Nadia. I did have to watch my Mom though. I keep telling her that if she doesn't stay on her oxygen she is not going to be allowed to watch her. I was going to change Nadias diaper and my Mom wanted to come watch so she takes off her oxygen and starts to get up. I told her "Oh no!! You said that you would have no problem staying on your oxygen at home because you can walk all around the house with it!" My Dad asked me if I was comfortable if he was the only one to watch her some days and I told him that was fine, I just don't trust my Mom by herself. Of course my point was proven today. I don't know why she just can't do what she is supposed to do, it drives me nuts! After we left my parents I had to drive Jacob up to North Phoenix to get his work truck. It was nice having him home with us, he had a hard time going back to work. We have this weekend together though, so that will be nice.
Tomorrow is Nadias 2 week check up. I am trying the same group of Drs but a different office. They opened in April so I am hoping that I will like it better than the last office. It will be my first outing with Nadia by myself. The Dr doesn't want me lifting more than 10lbs for 6 weeks, but that is just crazy. I think I can manage with the car seat even though it is a little heavy. I will update tomorrow on how her apt goes.
